FishOn 75 Posted October 27, 2017 (edited) I used pre-packaged broth and also made my own using cut beef bone from the Asian market, carrots, celery, onion, salt and pepper. First I braise the beef bones then add a few cut up celery stalks, chunked whole carrots and onion. Boil for a couple of hours and salt and pepper to taste. Then strain out the solid ingredients. I also add a little fresh lemon juice and a little finely chopped fresh cilantro and jalapeno just before serving. The home-made broth made the liquid diet far more palatable and I looked forward to having it for dinner.

I was so proud of myself yesterday; I went to pick up cat food and some more sf Jello for myself and I didn't break down and buy any junk food to sneak into my diet.

FL*Girl 54 Posted October 29, 2017 Did anyone else have horrible headaches? I'm really suffering and don't know if it's like caffeine withdrawal or just food withdrawal? It really sucks. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sosewsue61 3,185 Posted October 29, 2017 @FL*Girl it is likely both. Your body is used to caffeine and carbs and going through withdrawal. And yes it sucks and shakes still suck post-op too. But it will be a faded memory at some point. Hang in there. 1 FL*Girl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
